In 2009, Burgess took the five week intensive online course, paneled by the industry’s leading social media experts, where she learned, among other topics:
Burgess was brought on board with Laura Burgess Marketing in July 2009 to implement a social media optimization package to offer to current and potential clients, primarily focused on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube (other sites are available, please contact LBM for more details).
“Social Media exploded within the past few years and has gone far beyond the average high school or college student using it to keep up to date with friends. It [Social Media] has stepped into the ring with traditional media as a new platform to help raise awareness and build brand strength for businesses,” commented Burgess. “As the Gen Y and Millennial generation move into the work force and increase their buying power in our economy, it is imperative that companies speak their language. I truly believe that if a company does nothing to tap into this new media platform, they will be left in the dust as the years progress. That’s why we at Laura Burgess Marketing felt it was important to offer a Social Media Optimization package to our current and potential client base. There are many people out there who want to tap into Social Media, but just don’t know how to. We’re here to help.”
Laura Burgess Marketing provides full service marketing and public relations services and also offers the LBM Newswire service for only $300.00 and the LBM e-Newsletter advertisement for just $50.00.
